Abstract (en)
[origin: EP0899645A2] A method of calibrating a field effect transistor having a source (3), a drain (4), a resistive gate (2), and a calibration DC current source (7) and a calibration DC current sink (7) coupled to respective spaced apart regions of the transistor gate (2). In use a substantially DC calibration current is passed through the gate (2) between said spaced apart regions to trim the effective width of the transistor channel. <IMAGE>
